Upon arrival, they discovered two men, aged 31 and 29, and a 27-year-old woman with gunshot wounds, who were aided by witnesses before being taken to a hospital for treatment. The suspect, identified as 27-year-old Calvin Rudi Sanders, was detained by bystanders until law enforcement arrived and also required medical attention for his injuries.
